Getting better with the story! Direct and on point!I have expectations now after your post in the other thread that i will meet this "chameleon" sometime "soon"!

I still really wish the mid week contest could be extended to 2 days, without changing the difficulty too much. These prizes also look lackluster(more stamina and bazaar please!). Although im glad to see a token contest, we still need more variety as well.

I also think you should just have voting open before hand. I know to some it is counter-intuitive but i think you will get less feedback this way. Most players can look at a contest and assess it without having to complete it.

From my point of view, these are the best progress prizes I've seen in a long, long while for a token contest. Diamonds, runicite, stone shrines are way better than what you offered for this type of contest before. Those chests could have been replaced by bazaar tokens, but all in all I'd call it a big improvement. Of course, rank rewards are not worth it at all, just like always. Maybe you can work on those too, if you want people to really put up a fight to compete for top prizes. As it is now, I'm more than happy just to do the minimum effort to get all progress prizes.

Good contest.Tiers are mostly fine, last tier is tough for non-hoarders, but earlier tiers are totally fine. Progress rewards are fine. Rank rewards could be better, but at least that's bazaar. I'd prefer such contests to last for two days, instead of one.

Soulmate tokens I always spend s ton theb realize they aren’t part of contest. Also spending gold (on ships) should be included. Had those two things been different I’d had been much happier with the contest. As a somewhat money player the rewards were fine, but it’s tough to have the top5% so drastically higher on amounts they spend vs the normal or even committed but not wallet heavy player. Not your fault on that, it’s how games are. Also before I end my ramblings, earning tokens were impossible for one of the tokens that I am aware of. Love you guys either way and your dedication to trying to make the game continually get better

Awefulest contest l ever played.Went through all expedition,spent many tokens etc.The power scale stooped on andwasnt going to rise..Completed every task with no result..The power level in this contest is dead up to now..No points for expedition at all..

My first thought about token contests was that it is odd to reward inactive play, but I think that is wrong--these contests actually reward active players in a weird way. Hoarding stamina and diamonds for those contests makes perfect sense to me, but hoarding tokens I have never really seen worth it. If you are hoarding tokens for a month or two you are missing out on a lot of important gear in the shops. Active players buy that important gear, so maybe they can't hit all progress tiers or rank in 5%, depending on what they happen to have spent in the previous week. (Ok some active players are also token hoarders...I just don't think it works out favorably for tokens...of course it makes sense for stamina and diamonds as long as you do the first 4 stam buys each day then use rest for contest)

So if you are a token hoarder, ask yourself if the prizes from the final two progress tiers and ranking in 1% versus 5% or even 10% make up for missing out on glass cannons, horns, flamey poofs, and all sorts of other complex gear over 2 months or whatever the wait time was. Especially considering that you probably bought some items that you did not really want to buy to rank in the contest, so those tokens had less value than if you had spent them more wisely.

So in short I like these contests because I think hoarders are often shooting themselves in the foot and don't even realize it. I will take all my good gear prior to the contest and be happy with a few progress tiers in these contests. I sincerely hope that the rank rewards stay crappy for these token contests because that is totally appropriate. Rewarding inactive hoarding with better rank prizes would be inappropriate in my mind.

I don't think I'm a hoarder per se, but there really isn't much you can buy in shops and spending tokens on soulstones is long gone as all the heroes in all shops are ancient (except bazaar). I never refresh shops outside token contests, I just buy whatever comes up daily. Out of those only a few of them are actually worth buying and they don't pop up that often. Most of the stuff I buy is orange gear that require lots of components that I don't have. Even if I don't need them asap, they are worth a ton when you need to get a hero from scratch to c+2. I finished in top 5%, even though 10% would have been ok, but I had 500 bazaar tokens and wanted 3500 more to buy 2 crystal shrines. After spending 3,8 k coliseum tokens, 6,5 k fight tokens, 26 k guild tokens, 500 war tokens, 27 k expedition tokens, I still have 60 k fight pit tokens, 35 k guild tokens, 62 k expedition tokens, 33 k coliseum tokens, 51 k war tokens. And if i count the guild tokens and war tokens that I haven't collected since ages, I would still have enough to always get top progress in these contests. And I didn't shoot myself in the foot at all, only bought what I usually buy.

The contest gave points to people who earned Bazaar tokens yet the contest did not offer Bazaar tokens as a reward for any tier. The only way I could have seen someone earn Bazaar tokens would be if they did not claim their rewards from the previous contest. This just seemed poorly thought-out in my opinion.
